its difficult to find a quality coach now days...just look at struggles of auburn, tenn, arkansas.
we have a head coach of great integrity who excels in recruiting, molding and overall development of players in an honest and humble way

Yes, he is a quality coach. He says that word all the time in interviews; therefore, he is a quality coach.
He knows how to recruit well, I'll give him that.

On the other hand we are LSU. We have a state full of talent all to ourselves. Auburn has Bama, Arkansas outside of Springdale doesn't have much, and neither does Tennessee.
Just saying.
Just saying.

If only all the Miles haters knew and understood that the flashy guy doesn't always maintain such elite success in this conference.
Again it was pathetic all those people wanted Holgerson over Miles as HC at LSU.. Or even fricking Bobby Petrino.
Miles run a GREAT ship. Runs a very excellent program, and I would not want any one else. Other guys you gotta worry about dirty cheating or possibly jumping ship or just flat out suck.

We really should.

Well done.

I really like Les' style of coaching. Never have said a bad word about the guy.

I feel like I see this thread started every couple of hours.

Getting a guy who wins 80% isn't the norm. Getting two in a row is rare. Getting 3 in a row, I don't think there is any historical precedent for this. I'm enjoying it.

Good old Charlie Brown.

quote:How Les keeps this tag amazes me. When the team struggles, he is quick to place the blame on players as opposed to taking personal responsibility or calling out the coaches.

Also, the arrests, suspensions, recruiting violations, etc. are not the sign of a man in control of his program or players. Have past players lined up to declare what a great man, mentor, and coach he was and how their time under his watch prepared them for life in the NFL or after college?
Miles is a good coach, but not a great one. He reminds me of the pool player that can run the table, but when it comes time to sink the 8 ball, he scratches.

quote:I think you are onto something. A lot of us fans (myself included) look at things that aren't working and want unrealistically quick "fixes" for whatever the problem. I'm not saying Les Miles is quick to fix things. And I'm not saying he doesn't create his own problems sometimes in how he handles certain things (Malveto, OC, play calling, JJ/JL, time management issues). But taking the long view, he does eventually seem to get things fixed. He's more the slow, steady type like Cholly Mac than he is a flashy coaching personality. But in fewer years than Cholly, he's got quite a winning percentage going. And while we can't seem to get over that Alabama hump, which LSU coaches have ever really done that. Not even Cholly did. And CLM has a pretty good percentage, considering...

So all this is to say, compared with many national programs of our stature, LSU is doing quite well under Les Miles' leadership. And maybe people like me, who want those quick fixes, need to stand down and let this coach do his work his way.
Not saying I will. Not saying I won't. Just saying it's worth considering... and I'm considering it.

Something I haven't seen getting much play: Saturday night's win over State was a milestone for CLM - his 83rd win as LSU HC, tying him with Bernie Moore for 2nd place on the all-time list. He should pass Coach Moore this weekend.
Congrats to CLM on achieving this milestone in 8 years. It took Coach Moore ( I believe) 15 years to pile up that many wins.
